Dead tired...

This will probably be short and sweet.

I said I would show what I picked up at our thrift store outing, so here we go:

Set of sheets - New - $5

Quilt - hand quilted $5

Close-up

Can you believe someone would basically throw this away? I always wonder about things like that. Who made it? Did they give it to someone who really didn't know how much time and love was put into it? Maybe it's just me.

Now, I hate to put ya'll through this, but I'm also using my blog to show my progress on my remodeling projects. That's why I'm so tired. I finished taking down all the wallpaper in the master bath, cut the sheetrock to put in cement backerboard and was going to replace the faucets when I found a leak...so now all progress is halted there until the plumber comes...there's only so much I can do...plumbing and electricity are the two I don't mess with!

So I went to the kids/guest bath and started work in there. I got all the wallpaper off, and now that I can't use the master bath, 'Bama girl and I are sharing this one. Fun times! NOT!

This is what we're sharing!

Auburn Guy is thinking about coming home for a visit...maybe he should read this and think twice!

Ugly wallpaper...what was I thinking?

Well, enough of that! At least for tonight. And I'm really having trouble getting this to space right, it's double spacing everything. I'm beginning to have a complex...nothing is going right! And yes, I know I use {...}'s too much...sorry! I write the way I talk!

You need to relax and do something fun! Maybe go thrifting again. You have great thrift stores! Ours are so so in Riverside. Or else I don't look often enough.

I wish I had your energy. My house is a mess and I'm blogging and reading blogs and being lazy. I have to work soon because I want the house painted inside before hot weather hits. I better get up off my buttina!

So do you think you could stand meeting me - my son in love has to come over and help open the Chili's in Decatur and I said I want to come and see if my blog friend will meet me for dinner, maybe I can bring Valerie. He said yes and he will make sure we get the royal treatment.What do you think?Lorie

WOW !! You are an industrious gal!!! Those renovation projects would probably send me over the deep end.... you go girl!!! I'm sure your bathrooms and whatever else you decide to tackle will come out GREAT!!.....oh, and did you EVER strike the mother lode with that quilt!!! Five BUCKS ?!?!?! WOW !
